Adam Fitzgerald has spent the last twelve years doing in-depth research into the events of 9/11. This has led him to become deeply cynical of many of the conspiracies that have grown up around 9/11, as well as the US government's 'official' account. His research has focused on the geopolitics of 9/11 and in this interview he explains the deeper web of connections that exists beyond the superficial story of nineteen hijackers.

Chris Johnston is a former member of the Buddhafield cult, the subject of the 2016 documentary film, 'Holy Hell'. After leaving, Chris went on to study cults and religious movements, attempting to make sense of what he'd been through. In this interview he sheds light on what happened at Buddhafield and what factors caused him to be drawn into an abusive relationship with a man proclaiming to be a guru.   Chris' insights are valuable for anyone seeking to better understand the phenomenon of cults and appeal of authoritarian leaders. They are also invaluable in addressing the question of how do we move beyond these types of relationships in our personal lives, spiritual groups and wider society.   Holy Hell website Facebook Page Amazon UK Amazon US Netflix iTunes   Sign up to the newsletter for details of future interviews

Dr. Richard Ellefritz is an assistant professor of sociology who completed his PhD researching the 9/11 Truth movement. He did this from a position of being within the movement himself. In this interview I ask ask him about how his own position on 9/11 formed and how it can be that different groups in society can interpret this pivotal day in history in such radically different ways – leaving us living in very different world from each other.

Psychologist, therapist and host of the Scottish Liberty Podcast Antony Sammeroff joins me to discuss his presentation, The Psychology of Statism. Antony first explains how he came to hold his unconventional anarchistic views on government. He then talks about the psychological factors that prevent people from rationally and reflectively engaging in dialogue but rather lock them into their existing points of view. Finally, putting his therapists hat on, Antony talks about the role of resolving trauma in freeing ourselves to embrace a wider spectrum of ideas and becoming able to communicate more effectively with others.
